eDynamo Support

Brochure - Family

MagneFlex Prism is a suite of interface developer tools that reduce the points of development. Instead of using SDKs, APIs, and applets to build an interface to the hardware device, another to interface to the POS application, and another to the gateway, you can build the interface to just MagneFlex. MagneFlex drives the hardware, interfaces with the POS app, and can issue the commands to pack, parse and send the data out for processing.
Whether you are on a network client system or using a web-based app, there is a MagneFlex tool for you. This simplifies development and certification and allows you to determine the best ecosystem for each individual environment.

This document describes the properties, methods and events provided by the Java Applet component to communicate with MagTek Bluetooth Readers. For additional information, refer to the reader the Bluetooth Reader specific manual.

This document provides instructions to use the MTSCRA Demo on macOS. It is part of a larger library
of documents designed to assist uDynamo, Dynamag, DynaMAX, eDynamo, mDynamo, BulleT, and
Secure Card Readers implementers.

User Installation & Operation Manual

This guide describes EMV and magstripe operation mode. MPPGV3, a Magensa service, provides an interface to Vantiv through its Express platform for eDynamo EMV transactions in QwickDIP mode as well as magstripe transactions.

This Software Development Kit (SDK) contains the necessary tools for software developers who want to create software solutions that include a Dynamag, DynaMAX, eDynamo, mDynamo, tDynamo, or DynaWave connected to a Windows-based host via USB or BLE. It contains: Java/Java Applet library, and C++ Library. Demo applications, sample code, and documentation are also included.

This Software Development Kit (SDK) is for Universal Windows projects, the supported platforms include all Windows 10 devices. It contains the necessary tools for software developers who want to create software solutions that include a DynaMag, DynaMAX, eDynamo, uDynamo, Insert, or mDynamo connected to a Windows 10 device host via USB. Demo applications, sample code, and documentation are also included.

This Software Development Kit (SDK) is for developers who want to create software solutions that include an aDynamo, uDynamo, Dynamag, eDynamo, mDynamo, DynaMAX, tDynamo, or DynaWave device connected to a Windows-based host via Audio, USB, or BLE. This package is a Windows .NET API which provides a library, sample code, and documentation for the programming environment.

The MTSCRA WEB API provides demonstration source code and reusable MTSCRA WEBAPI DLLs that provide developers of custom software solutions with an easy-to-use interface for Dynamag, DynaMAX, and eDynamo. Developers can include the MTSCRA WEBAPI DLLs in custom branded software which can be distributed to customers or distributed internally as part of an enterprise solution.

Driver

This JPOS driver for USB HID Swipe Readers may be used with our Dynamag USB, eDynamo USB (swipe only)
running in HID mode. This package does not support USB readers set to keyboard emulation mode. This package contains a Java library and sample code for Windows, Linux, and macOS programming environments.

MagneFlex Browser

MagneFlex Blue is a full function iOS browser. It was made for iOS app development and gives developers a fast track into the app store. It makes iOS app development easier because it speaks the iOS web app language.
Blue eliminates the need for plug-ins as well since everything is built-into the browser. This free development tool can be white-labelled and provides a turnkey integration solution for iOS web applications, working with MagTek hardware and services. Sites developed in HTML 5 with device responsive views will work seamlessly in this browser allowing the app to respond to devices whether they are tablets or phones in a device native format, reducing the development effort.

MagneFlex Navy is a full-function Windows HTML browser application. It is integrated with device drivers that control MagTek payment devices through HTML over HTTP(S) context. Navy allows integrators to build an HTML application, such as a web-based POS application, to interact with MagTek readers to collect data from magnetic stripe, EMV contact chip, or contactless (NFC) cards and accept digital payments. This enables distribution by an integrator of a full function POS system, coupled with MagTek POS countertop or mobile secure card readers and PIN device.

MagneFlex Sky is a full function Android browser, made for Android app development and optional white labeling. Android app development is made easier by speaking the app language and plug-ins are not needed. You can find MagneFlex Sky in Google Play and the Amazon app store.

MagneFlex Middleware

MagneFlex Powder for SCRAs is a smaller middleware application that delivers communications between the POS app and the hardware. If you already know how to send the data through for processing this may be all you need.

MagneFlex Teal is a middleware application that, when used in conjunction with the MagTek family of payment terminals and Magensa transaction processing services, provides a simplified and consistent interface for a POS Application to initiate and complete card-based payment transactions. To maximize flexibility, Teal is template-driven, using data translation techniques to seamlessly inter-operate between the MagneFlex input API, the Terminal interface, payment card technologies (MSR, EMV, key-entered), and downstream processor APIs. There are several different ways you can integrate Teal:
Software semi-integrated: MagneFlex is installed and configured on the local POS workstation.
Fully integrated: MagneFlex is fully integrated and configured into the local POS application.
Hardware semi-integrated controller: MagneFlex is centrally installed, configured, and managed by a Store Controller.
Hardware semi-integrated terminal: MagneFlex is installed and configured on a CPU for each POS workstation and its payment terminal.

A: Yes, the eDynamo can operate with an optional Docking Station (Part # 21079809) designed to elongate the swipe path and provide hard mounting points to secure the device to a solid surface such as a countertop.

A: No, but it does have a pushbutton. The pushbutton on the side of the device above the USB port is used to reset the reader and to wake the reader from Airplane Mode (eDynamo is never completely turned off).

A: Press the pushbutton for at least 10 seconds and the eDynamo will reset and go into airplane mode. While in airplane mode, the eDynamo will no longer advertise over BLE and cannot be connected to BLE. To take the eDynamo out of airplane mode press and release the pushbutton quickly. The blue LED will flash every two seconds to indicate it is advertising. The blue LED will stop blinking after 60 seconds to conserve power, but the eDynamo will continue to advertise. The blue LED can also be optionally configured to be on when a BLE connection is active or off when inactive.

A: The eDynamo uses an internal rechargeable battery. If the eDynamo is communicating wirelessly and operating on battery power (NOT USB power), the eDynamo should be able to accommodate the following**:

• ~250 magstripe swipes per day, ~7 days per week

• ~180 chip reads per day, ~7 days per week

**These estimates assume the Blue LED is illuminated when connected to a wireless host. If this setting is changed and the Blue LED is turned off, then add ~ 20% more transactions to each example.

A: Number of transactions per charge*: (Time per Transaction = ~15s) Year 1 MSR: 1800 Smart: 1250; Year 2 MSR: 1350 Smart: 900; Year 3 MSR: 900 Smart: 700; Year 4 MSR: 700 Smart: 500; Year 5 MSR: 500 Smart: 350. *Note, the battery capacity will degrade with time. These estimates assume the total number of transactions will NOT exceed the limits listed for each transaction type or combination thereof.

A: Yes, the user can temporarily override the Swipe Output Channel to the following. Change to wireless connection: Uncheck Auto Add Length, Send 480101. Reset the eDynamo to revert back to the original. Swipe Output Channel. Change to USB: Send 480100, Reset the eDynamo to revert back to the original Swipe Output Channel.
